Lifted Trucks

Megw3788 · 11-03-2007, 06:42 PM

Just wondering who on here that has a lifted truck now, had a lifted truck before you got the Titan? If so post pics of your old ride and the Titan!

Here's my most recent: 1996 F350 Powerstroke Diesel with 13" of lift on 46" Baja Claws with a banks kit (w/ upgraded turbo), a superchips programmer, true duals, and some other goodies.

And the Titan: Mods in my sig.

I've got a Suzuki Samurai, 88, lifted 8", 33 12.50s BFGs, Twin DeLorto 40mm carbs, Power Brute locker front and rear, Isky cam, Thorley header, Jacobs ignition system, Custom lift combined with Skyjacker, Aussie Bull Bar, AR wheels, 8 Rancho RS5000 Platimum shocks, custom interior.

Took second in the 94 4 Wheel and Off Road Midwest Jamboree, and first in numerous state shows.

I had a little tacoma 4x4 with a 6" lift and 33's. Rocked the sand pits, and tore up the swamp.

Heres a pic of me yanking out my buddy's sunken wrangler...

This was taken out near the entrance to Palm Tree crossing, if you are familiar with Melbourne.

Sami sounds sick, got any pics? Nice lookin Yota BigJimbo! Those things are definitely pretty serious in the mud!

Yeah I miss that truck...just needed more room and power.

Biggest brag I have was when my buddies 2500 Durimax couldnt yank out my other buddies F250...2 tugs and the yota had him out. Interesting enough it was in the same area as that wrangler above was posted.

A few years back we were out a bout a 2 miles inbound from that entrance and one of the big trucks got stuck F250 on 44's. No one could get out to him so the sami's were dispatched...6 of those things were pulling and pulling and pulling, pretty hilarious. Wound up having to call out the swamp buggy a buddy owned he pulled him out about an hour later.

There's only a couple of times I got my Sami stuck, and if you do, ya get 6 guys to pick it up and carry it out....thats what those nerf bars are for.

Here's a pic of my old 2004 Z71 Tahoe. 6" body lift, 35" BFG tires.

PS...it was a few years ago, I've grown up, and now I don't condone destroying port-a-johns

Yeah I had a similar situation with my F250 on 36s. A big dodge 3500 on 44s tried snatching me and couldn't budge me, then a lil yota like yours with ARB air lockers front and rear with 35s snatched me right out! It's crazy b/c usually heavier trucks are what you need for snatching, but that thing got me right out.

Nice lookin Tahoe Failsafe! Ha looks like it actually got some offroad action too, not just a grocery getter!

Megw3788 · 11-04-2007, 01:24 PM

Nice lookin chevy dodson! Didn't really like those new Chevy's at first, but they're starting to grow on me. I think they look good lifted or lowered, but not stock.

If I ever have the extra money, not likely for a while with two kids though, I'm going to shoehorn a Titan motor in my Sami.
